“MVRDV regrets deeply any connotations The Cloud projects evokes regarding 9/11. It was not our intention to create an image resembling the attacks nor did we see the resemblance during the design process. The design inspiration of The Cloud is visualised in the first image on our website, a cloud covering the centre of the Sky scraper.”

    looking at the design firms website, this is really quite beautiful.

    KMFIX : All other considerations aside, yes the design was lovely but the execution? Not so much…

    Publishing an actual image of the exploding twin towers is not as egregious as an architectural design that may, or may not, resemble the exploding twin towers?

    I am baffled.

    Didn’t we already kick Kolea’s ass once?
